July 01 Week 2

Monday

July 8Shorter due to the fact that this was typed after I saw the show (cable
problems)
At the hospital, Brady and CHloe finish watching the fireworks, and Brady says they
have survived the attack
of the killer meteors, so they can survive anything. Chloe wishes she could believe
that.
As they talk, Craig shows up, so Brady is forced to hide under the bed because CHloe
is afraid what he'd do if he
caught him in here after hours again. We are treated to a comical scene in which
Brady's wallet is on the floor,
and as he goes to get it, Craig steps on his hand. Craig eventually leaves, and never
finds Brady there.
Brady thinks he should go, but Chloe asks him to stay. SHe is afraid to go asleep and
wake up alone,
so he agrees to stay the night.

Elsewhere, Phillip has shown up to see Chloe, but Craig says she needs her rest and
to come back tomorrow.
Phillip then sees Billie come in, and is shocked. He goes to see Billie, who claims
she is fine and doesn't
want anyone to know she is here. She says she faked amnesia so she didn't have to
answer any questions.
Billie asks Phillip to find her briefcase, and he does. He steals it from the nurses
station,
and then helps his sister escape. Later, Bo shows up to question the Jane Doe, only
to learn she is missing.
Jen and Jack are also there doing a story on the meteors. WHile Jack interviews the
weirdos who have all sorts
of out-of-this-world stories, Jen talks to Collin. Collin wants Jen to admit she is
after him and their connection
never ended. Jen says she does not want him because he only plays games and his main
thrill is to use women and string
them along. Collin says when she's ready to admit that she wants him to come and see
him. Jen walks off, and Collin
says he's only playing one last game, and this time it is for keeps.

Phillip and Billie head to Kate's place, and she's happy to see Billie. Billie tells
them both that she needs
to lay low, and she can't yet explain what she is doing here. She promises to do so
in time. Kate wants to call Lucas
so he can see Billie before he leaves for Africa, but Billie says she'll catch up
with Lucas later. Kate asks why she came here
if she didn't want to be seen? Billie says she was going to Green Mountain lodge when
she crashed her car, she never meant to come
here. Billie leaves for a bit, and Kate knows her daughter is in trouble. Billie then
makes a call and insists she will
take care of Bo! Meanwhile, Phillip heads back to the hospital to sneak in and see
CHloe, only to find Brady in bed with her!

Out in the woods, Belle and Shawn see the alien capsule land, and the alien twins
bathed in green light from
their bracelets. The capsule they are in seems to begin to overheat, so SHawn drags
them out of it. Suddenly, the capsule explodes,
and just disappears! Shawn thinks they need help, so he calls home. Hope answers, but
SHawn's phone has problems. Hope sees it is Shawn's
number, but when she calls him back there is no answer. This is because Shawn
accidentally dropped his phone and broke it. The bracelets
emitting the green light suddenly dim, and Belle thinks it means the aliens are
dying. Shawn and Belle end up performing CPR on them,
and they come back to life. However they are frightened and run off. Belle and Shawn
chase after them, but end up being knocked unconscious
by the aliens, who take off. Meanwhile, Bo returns home and Hope tells him that she
is worried about Shawn. Bo thinks Belle is probably
with him, and they just want to be alone.

Tuesday

July 9This has been spell checked but not proofed. Not feeling well today
Brady wakes up in CHloe's hospital bed the next morning. He asks her to wake up, but
she isn't responding. She eventually wakes up, and Chloe has very little strength.
SHe is touched
that he stayed all night with her. Nancy comes in, and Brady says he just came to
check on Chloe, and he'll leave
them to have a mother daughter talk. Outside the hospital, Phillip takes his anger
out on some poor cardboard boxes.
He says he'll never let Brady steal Chloe from him, and rushes into the hospital.
Phillip finds Brady leaving Chloe's room, and he says they need to have a talk.
Phillip and CHloe go outback, and Phillip accuses Brady of using her sickness to get
closer to her.
Brady tells Phillip to calm down and stop being jealous and he will explain
everything.
Brady says CHloe was afraid that if she went to sleep she wouldn't wake up again, so
she asked him to stay with her.
Phillip feels like a jerk, and promises never to be jealous again. He says from now
on they will put Chloe's needs first.

Back in CHloe's room, Chloe thanks Nancy for being so strong for her, she knows this
must be tough.
Nancy tells Chloe that she'd change places with her if she could, and she doesn't
want her to think she is going through this alone.
Chloe knows that, and she says that she knows she is supposed to remain positive
because it is better for her immune system,
but there are so many people who do the right things and still don't make it. Chloe
says if they don't find a donner,
all of this will be for nothing. Nancy tells CHloe not to say that! Nancy tells CHloe
that she may be tough on her at times,
but she only wants her to remain hopeful. She also says she wants her to feel free to
talk to her because she will
understand. Chloe says one thing being sick has made her realize is how well she had
it before getting sick.

Phillip and Brady go back inside and run into Nancy. Nancy tells them that Chloe
misses home, her room,
her things. Brady thinks he knows how to make Chloe feel better. Brady says they
will need help from someone with
a lot of pull, and they will have to break some rules. Nancy says she knows the Chief
of Staff intimately,
and she will break any rule to help Chloe.

Sami is furious to learn Brandon has taken the day off. She knows he must be with
Lexie,
and her fears are confirmed when she reads about Lexie's sentencing today.
Sami vows to make sure Brandon isn't with her for long.

Brandon surprises Lexie at her hotel with breakfast. Lexie says her mom, Celeste, is
down
at the gym working off some of her steam. Lexie opens the paper and looks at the
article on her.
She wonders how she got so messed up. Suddenly, there is a knock on her door and
someone says "Police, open up!"
Brandon answers the door and asks what the cop wants. HE says he is here to escort
Lexie to the courthouse. LExie says she is not
a criminal, and he can tell her husband that she can find the courthouse on her own.
She tells the officer to
take a hike! Brandon thinks there is something fishy about that guy, and we learn he
was an actor Sami hired!
Sami yells at the guy for doing a lousy job, and he calls her an ungrateful brat!
Suddenly, Brandon comes out of the room and says he knew she was behind this!
Sami tells Brandon that LExie is using her, but he says he'll be the judge of that.
Brandon says Lexie is his friend, and she needs him
today. He also tells Sami that if she keeps this up, their friendship will be over!
Brandon returns to Lexie, and takes her down to the courthouse.

At the station, Roman talks to Abe about the meteor shower last night.
Later, Abe thinks about Lexie and his problems with her. Roman asks Abe why he is
afraid
of LExie being friends with Brandon? Abe says Brandon hates him and has always been
out to turn her against him.

Out in the woods, Belle and Shawn can't find the aliens anywhere. SHawn and Belle
think they have just
vanished, and wonder if they really are from another planet. They begin replaying
last night over in their minds.

At Bo's, John and Marlena show up asking where Belle is. MArlena says Belle did not
come
home last night, so she must be with Shawn. Hope comes downstairs and says Shawn
didn't
come home last night either. John is furious and blames Shawn. He refuses to stand
around her and talk,
so he leaves to find them. Marlena chases after John and brings him back, and she
begs him to calm down.
Belle and SHawn finally return home, and John demands to know where in the hell they
have been!
Belle and Shawn explain how they went to lookout point after the barbecue, and they
saw an alien capsule
land! LAter, Roman calls, and when Bo tells him what Shawn and Belle think they saw,
he says they have a problem.
Bo says okay, and tells John to come with him to the station. Hope asks what is
wrong, and Bo says he'll fill them in when
they get back. Hope and Marlena continue questioning Belle and Shawn about their
spaceship.

At the crash site, a government agent inspects things. Bo, John, Roman, and Abe show
up, and they learn
the agent, Agent Spector, is investigating an UFO landing for the government! Abe
asks John and Bo about Shawn and Belle's
story. Bo doesn't think they would lie, but he thinks this must be some sort of hoax.

Wednesday

July 10This hasn't been proofed because I have to go to dinner with friends (who are waiting for me as I'm uploading this)
At Bo and Hope's, Marlena and Hope discuss Shawn and Belle's ordeal. John and Bo
return home, and they
tell there wives that Nasa is out there investigating and everything is being kept
hush-hush.
John asks where the kids are, and Marlena says they went out to search for the
aliens.
They all discuss the kids story, and think that the aliens were probably just a
couple knocked unconscious by
the meteors, were embarrassed, and took off. MArlena and John decide to get ready for
the hearing. Hope says they don't
have to go, but Marlena says they want to be there for them. John, however, wants to
be there to see Lexie get it!

Shawn and Belle head back to the crash site and find police tape all over the place.
They run into Abe, who has some questions for them about last night. Belle wonders if
they have
found the aliens. Shawn tells Belle that the aliens are going to be in trouble if the
government
gets ahold of them, so they have to protect them. Agent Spector questions Belle and
Shawn,
and Shawn lies to them. Later, Brady calls Belle and tells her and Shawn to get to
the hospital.

Brandon take LExie to the courthouse for her sentencing. She meets up with Cameron,
who asks Lexie not
to do this. Lexie tells her to do it or she will get someone else. She orders Cameron
to make the call. Cameron
leaves, and Brandon asks what that is about? Lexie says he'll see, they'll all see!
Later, Bo, Hope, Marlena, and John show up. Lexie is looking like she is going to get
off, and when she sees
her "closest friends" she says they just can't wait to see her punished. Abe shows up
to support Lexie, but she ignores
him. The judge shows up and says this is a sentencing trial, there will be no
testimonies, but he will hear from both
sides before passing sentence. Tony comes forward to speak on behalf of his sister,
which John throws a fit about because
he was out of the country. The judge tells him to sit down, and the DA objects to
Tony's being allowed to speak.
The judge allows him to speak. TOny says Lexie has proven her devotion to this
community as a cop and a surgeon,
but she is also a loving mother. He says what she did was rash, but it was because
she loved her child so much.
The judge asks if anyone else would like to speak, and Hope comes forward.
Hope says Lexie was one of her closest friends, which makes her betrayal all the more
hurtful.
Hope says the pain Lexie went through is nothing compared to the pain she put her
family through. She begs
the judge to think of the best interest of the child, and give her family a chance to
live in peace.
Pat Hamiliton and Cameron make their closing statements. Pat states the facts and
crimes Lexie committed, and says that LExie must
be given the maximum sentence the law allows. Cameron says the facts the DA have
stated are true, but there is one other fact, Lexie is just as much
of a victim in this as much as everyone else, because the hospital is the one at
fault.
Cameron says LExie did the wrong thing, but she deserves the chance to rebuild her
life. Cameron says LExie wasn't a threat
before, and she isn't a threat now, and she asks for Lexie to be treated with the
compassion and sensitivity she deserves.
Lexie is then allowed to speak, and she says she knows she has lost her little boy,
but with the help of her mother, brother,
and her one friend Brandon, she has come to terms with this loss. LExie says she does
not want to lose her family and her life in this community,
but she is ready to accept her punishment. She asks as a last request she be punished
for her life alone, not because she was born a DiMera.
The judge takes a recess to decide the punishment. John confronts TOny, and Marlena
says this isn't the time or the place. John suggests to Tony
that they take this outside. Tony refuses, and threatens to slap John with harassment
charges.
Tony goes to be with LExie, who thanks him for being here. Lexie then turns on Hope
and says it's bad enough she lost her baby, now she wants her
to spend her life behind bars? Hope tells Lexie not to even make her the bad guy. The
judge returns and is prepares to pronounce
sentence. Lexie is sentenced to 2 years of probation, 3000 hours of community service
at the Salem free clinic, 1 year of counseling, and she is not allowed
to see Zack Brady until the Brady's deem so. Lexie celebrates with her friends and
family, and John, Marlena, Bo, and Hope
just watch. Lexie sees them watching her, and vows to make them all pay.

At the hospital, a nurse brings flowers into Chloe. She thinks they must be from
Phillip,
but is shocked when she reads the card. THe flowers are from Cecelia Marin, and she
tells her that she will
be waiting for her arrival at Julliard and she knows she will be a big star one day
and go on to great success.

Outside Chloe's room, Mimi and Kevin meet up with Phillip and Brady to help CHloe.
Phillip and Brady tell them what they have planned, and Mimi says it is beautiful.
They go into see CHloe, and ask her to get into her chariot (a wheelchair) and come
with them.
They take her out to a new room, which they have transformed into her room from home.
They even brought honey and sugar, in the form of stuffed animals. She thanks them
all for what they've
done. The other kids ask about the meteor showers, but Shawn doesn't want to tell
them what happened.
Belle says she wants to tell them, maybe they can help. Before SHawn tells them, he
swears them
to secrecy. After they learn, Mimi believes them, but Phillip thinks they hit their
head on his telescope harder than they thought.
Chloe doesn't know if she believes or not, but recent events have made Brady more
open to believing such things.

Meanwhile, Craig tells Nancy the news he got on Chloe's biological father. Craig says
that the PI thinks
he's found Sykes sister in NEw York, so he's gone to talk to her. Later, Craig is
served papers holding him responsible
for the baby switch!

Thursday

July 11
At the Sfpectator, Jen tells Abby, via the phone, that she will try and be home as
soon as possible. Jack overhears and says he can
handle the front page if she wants to go home to Abby. Jen thanks Jack, and accepts
his offer. Jen accesses JAck's PC from her's so he can work in his office, and he
becomes nervous.
Jen sees something and says "Aha!" Jen finds a file on Collin, and he decides not to
keep it from her anymore.
He tells her to go ahead and read it. Jen refuses to believe this and they begin to
argue.
Jack says its obvious she is turning her head to this man's faults and not
believing him, especially since she decided not to
love him anymore. Jen blurts out "What!" She asks him what he is talking about? Jack
says Collin told him that she told him
in Africa that she no longer loved him. Jen says she never said that, but Jack thinks
that maybe those weren't her exact
words. He begs her to look at the evidence he's compiled on Collin and tell him what
she thinks.
Jen says that everyone else thinks Collin is a great guy, and he obviously hasn't
looked at the other side of the story.
Jack says they'll start with her and asks Jen what she thinks about Collin? Jen says
nothing, and Jack says that Collin
obviously had plans for her! Jen asks what kind of plans, does he think he was going
to use and corrupt her? Jack says no, if he couldn't
corrupt her, nobody could. However, Jack says Collin hurt her like he did, and he
wanted to make sure he didn't make things
worse for her. Jen says she needs to be alone right now. Jack says he will prove to
her that Collin is as bad and dangerous as Tony,
and if he can't, they he quits!

At the hospital, Craig is having lunch with Collin and is not in a good mood because
of LExie's lawsuit. Collin assures Craig that Lexie doesn't have a prayer.
Meanwhile, Sami sits around waiting for Brandon to show up. Lexie and Tony show up,
and Sami
accuses her of coming here to find Brandon. Craig confronts Lexie and demands to know
what she is doing here.
Lexie tells Craig that he is a slimey bastard who ruined her life, and she will make
sure both him and the hospital pays.
Craig tells her that she is the one who will end up in trouble if she continues with
this lawsuit!
Meanwhile, Tony meets with Collin. He says he got his message, and asks what is up?
Suddenly, Sami interrupts and asks to speak with Tony alone. Lexie then butts in and
tells Sami to stay away from her brother!
Sami says they are practically family, Tony is Carrie's ex-step-father after all!
Craig shows up, and he begins arguing with TOny. Tony happens to know all about
Chloe's condition, which upsets
Craig. Tony talks to his sister alone for awhile and tells her to give up on this
lawsuit and that little boy, because he is
a Brady! Tony tells LExie that going after the hospital will get her nothing, but
Lexie says this hospital and the Brady's
have ruined her life! Lexie says they are all claiming father did this, and she wants
everyone to know that he is innocent!
Tony tells Lexie that she has lost a son, a husband, and they have both lost a
father, they should not have to lose one another over this.
He begs her to forget about the lawsuit. Later, Tony talks to Collin in private. He
says if he is to maintain the power
of the DiMera's he has to nip this lawsuit in the bud. Collin then asks Tony to let
him examine him, but Tony insists he is fine.
suddenly, Tony goes into another trance! While in the trance, TOny mutters the name
"Marlena!"
Meanwhile, Lexie asks Sami what she is up to with her brother? Sami says that is none
of her business, and
asks her what she is doing ditching her husband for another man? Lexie tells Sami to
stop playing dangerous games,
especially since she has so much information on heR! Lexie tells Sami to remember
what happened to her family the last time
they crossed the DiMeras! Sami decides the only way to prove to BRandon that Lexie is
wrong for him is to work with a DiMera.
Elsewhere, Mickey shows up to meet with Craig to talk about the lawsuit. Craig says
he never thought they would
be on the same side. Mickey says he is here because of his mother and family's love
for this hospital.

Nicole shows up at Tuscany to meet Victor. Nicole calls up Austin's office and leaves
a nasty message for him saying that she
needs to hear from him before her meeting with the ad reps. Victor shows up
to have dinner with Nicole, and he tells her how much they understand one another and
need one another.
Nicole asks him if he is saying he is the only one who can give her what she
needs? Victor looks over at John and Marlena, and tells Nicole that MArlena is a
lucky woman, she has a rich and successful
husband and one who loves her very much. Nicole asks Victor if he is saying she will
never find true love and should
give up on the concept? Victor says it doesn't matter to him, only what she wants
matters.
Victor excuses himself to say hello to MArlena and John, and then returns. Nicole
agrees to leave with Victor,
but she says it is not a commitment. She tells him that they should adjourn to her
place!

John and Marlena show up at Tuscany for their second attempt at an
anniversary dinner. At dinner, MArlena tells John that if he keeps up with this
anger towards the DiMeras, and this desire to destroy them, he will end up destroying
himself.
Marlena asks John to stop the vendetta and just stay away from Tony. John tells
Marlena that he's sorry
he's upset her so much. She asks him if he is saying it is over and that he will stay
away?
John claims he can give her that, and she thanks him. MArlena then brings out a gift
from his wife, which he opens.
Inside is a black leather briefcase. Marlena says leather is the traditional 3rd
anniversary gift.
Maggie then brings them an anniversary cake, and sings to them. Later, Victor wishes
MArlena and John a happy
anniversary. After Victor leaves, John gives Marlena her gift, a charm bracelet with
three charms for three years: the sun, the moon,
and the stars. John tells her that she has given all three of them to him. The sun he
says represents the light she's brought to his life,
the moon represents that she is his center, and the stars represent that she will
always show him the way. Later, we learn that John has lied to Marlena,
and says he will do whatever it takes to keep her safe and protect them all from the
DiMeras.

Friday

July 12
Kate shows up for work at Basic Black and is trying to get a hold of Billie via
phone. Billie says she is at Green Mountain lodge enjoying herself, when she's
actually at a warehouse
being trained by a very mean and big man. Later, Billie says it is time, and grabs a
gun!

Back at Basic Black, Kate lies to John about who she was talking to,
and he says he hates
liars! KAte says she isn't lying to him, and John says he was just talking to
himself.
John rants to Kate about Tony, and he says he knows he's not a changed man like he's
claiming.
He says he also promised Marlena not to carry out this vendetta against the DiMeras,
but everything tells
him they are a danger. Kate tells John that Tony is trying to make nice with the
folks of the Salem, so he should
deal with Tony the same way. Kate advises John to make nice with Tony and claim to be
giving him the benefit of the doubt.
KAte tells John that the closer he can get to Tony, and Lexie, the easier time
he will have finding out
what he wants.
John thinks that if the DIMera's think he has gone soft, they may decide to strike.
He says that is a risk
he can't take.

At the Spectator, Jen calls the hospital to find out about Collin, and if Tony's
condition
is critical. She ends up running out of the office.

At the hospital, Tony falls into a trance, and Collin tries to get through to him.
All Tony will say is "Marlena." Tony comes too, and admits to Collin that these
episodes have
happened so many times he's lost count. He says they happened infrequently at first
after the coma,
but then they increased. Collin asks Tony to be honest with him or he will never be
able to help
him get full control of the DiMera empire like he wants to. Tony begins explaining
about when he first came out
of his coma, and the nurses hovered over him. He says they kept the truth from him
for awhile about his wife,
and how she had died (HUH, Kristen DIDN't DIE!). HE says shortly after he learned the
whole truth,
he began having these blackouts. He says he began piecing together everything, and
finally tracked down Stefano, but
when he finally found him he was at the side of the road dying. Tony says that
Stefano wanted to give him the secret
of his past and of his future. Collin asks what that means. Tony says his father told
him about a strange cobalt blue key
that would unlock everything, and that while he was in his coma, many miracles took
place.
Tony says that is when Stefano died, so he has to find out the secrets to his past,
or he may have no
future. TOny swears Collin to secrecy and says he can't risk anyone else finding out
the truth before him.
MEanwhile, Jen shows up and spies on Collin and Tony's meeting. Tony tells Collin
that John now has the key,
but he doesn't know what it is for. Jen overhears Collin tell Tony that he'll help
him anyways he can. Collin then sees the door is ajar,
and goes outside and finds Jen spying on them! Jen claims she was coming to see him,
but Collin accuses her of spying on him!
Jen claims she didn't even know if he was in there, she was about to knock to see.
Collin apologizes and says he's been up all night
with Tony DiMera. Collin claims he is concerned his disease may be back, but his
tests came back negative.
Collin asks Jen why she is here after reading him the riot act last night? Jen says
she came hoping there were no hard feelings, and she
was hoping they could still be friends. Collin says he'd like that. Jen thanks him,
and says she'll go now and will see him
around. Collin goes back to see Tony, but he has vanishes. Jen continues to spy on
Collin as he searches for Tony.
Later, Collin finds Jen snooping through his records and decides to nip this in the
bud. As Jen is calling Jack,
Collin grabs her from behind!

MArlena meets Hope in Salem Place for coffee, and then leave to find the kids.
Up on the mountain, Belle has a nightmare about the aliens abducting her and Shawn. She wakes up from
her nightmare in Shawns arms up on the mountain. SHe tells him about her dream, when
suddenly
something stirs in the bushes. They think it is the aliens, but it turns out to be
Marlena and Hope.
They tease the kids, who claim they have given up searching for the aliens and now
believe it
was just a dream. As Marlena and Hope continue to tease the kids, we see a glowing
green light in the bushes. Marlena and Hope leave to have breakfast, and Belle says
she hates lying to their
parents about the aliens. Shawn and Belle
continue to remember the aliens and
what happened. Belle tells SHawn about the alien boy kissing her when she revived
him, and it sorta upsets Shawn.
Shawn decides to wipe that memory out with his own kiss. Shawn and Belle jump in the
truck to leave, not realizing the aliens are hitching
a ride in the back!

Elswhere in Salem Place, Jack meets with Bo and shows him what Victor gave him about Collin. Jack suggests
they team up
to find out who he really is. Bo says he is still his cousin, so he's not going to
help Jack rat his
family member out. Jack knows Bo doesn't trust him, but Bo says he won't compromise
his relationships at the station
so he can get a headline. Jack says this is about more then a headline. Bo knows it
is really about Jen. Jack says he's no longer
chasing after Jen, but he does care about her still and doesn't want her to be hurt.
Jack fears Collin would sell them
all out to the DiMera's, and he feels he is working with Tony. Jack asks Bo to trust
his instinct as a reporter, which Bo says he doesn't
doubt. Bo says he'll think about it, and Jack takes off. Later, Hope shows up to meet
Bo.
Hope tells Bo that the kids claim the whole alien thing is over. As they plan a
shopping trip, Billie,
in a blonde wig, watches them.

Jack calls work and learns Jen went to the hospital to find Collin. He wishes she'd
stay away from
that guy. JAck returns to work and is furious Jen has gone to see Collin. He says he
can't take it anymore,
and decides to quit. He yells that he is out of here!

Marlena returns to her work and finds Tony waiting in her office. She asks how he got
in here?
Tony says the door was open and his assistant was no where. Tony claims he has a
problem
and he needs her help. Tony says he is having problems dealing with his fathers
death, but Marlena says she
can't help him due to her history with the DiMera. Marlena also says if her husband
find him here . . . Suddenly,
John walks in!
